    Currently using version 6.9.5 of CPPM.
    Is the snmp community string also restored through the backup file?
    Also, is there a way to see the plain text of the snmp community string?

    I think that the SNMP string is restored from a backup; but if you need to be sure Aruba Support may be able to provide an answer.
    I'm not aware of a method to retrieve the plaintext of the SNMP community, because it is stored in an encrypted form in the database, probably as MD5 hash.
